Sorry if I sound a little stupid here but hell I was ready to put the car in the paint shop this week, ending this 20 year project. I put the post out here hoping it could be a very sample fix like venting, very cool, however not that lucky.

I am by no means a motor head; my niche is suspension design and fabrication. But what I can say is I totally built that harness, solder and shrink rap all splices and preformed a test on each system to verify volts and continuity. I can tell you off the top of my head what the ford factory wire color codes are and there function, I have a desk full of research papers, diagrams and so forth. However it could be just one bad joint which could cause me to put the car on blocks again and buy another Harley, not going there going to solve this issue.

I really appreciate yours and Jerry’s input, you guys are totally correct. I need to settle down and start running some tests.

What I can rule out for now, coil, distributor, air mass, TPS, O2’s, going to remove the chip and drive the car, car will run rich but if the stumbling stops then I need to make a phone call.

Problem persists, install the chip, I know a guy here in town who has an extra after market harness for my setup. I was going to buy it this year for next years winter project. I want a stroke 351 with a new EFI system which will come with a harness, fuel pump and so on. So I’ll pull that trigger now, install the harness. Found out this morning one of the club guys has an extra fuel pump so I might visit him today or tomorrow. I have a fuel pressure tester system coming I ordered it yesterday, it’s a dash mounted. I will post my findings.

If I see y’all in town, I’ll buy the first round, thanks for the communication.
